The Minionwagen made its debut this last weekend, complete with Minions Kevin, Stuart and Bob, at the Homestead-Miami Speedway on Ford Championship Weekend. This Minionwagon served as grand marshal vehicle at the Ford Ecoboost 400 on Sunday, which was the final race of the 2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup season.
